Would you post your chart when you are able? It is helpful to me. Regards, John

ProfLogic, Thank you for your kind words. John

Today's trades. By the way, please note that I have my own method. I'm utilizing ProfLogic's method as confirmation. My reason for doing this is that I believe in constant study. In any event, of the two days, I know some of the trades are within the guidelines, others you can just assume...

As promised, here is yesterday's 343 Volume chart for the ZN. I consider the best trades the first and the last. The horizontal lines are S/R that I drew in prior to market open. All trades left more on the table, but that is fine by me. The last trade in particular, I really enjoyed. I...

I had an excellent day in the 10 year (ZN) utilizing this method as confirmation. I'll see if I can post a chart later today or early tomorrow AM. Very basic stuff. My take is always look at 2 markets at a minimum. The 10 year is my bread and butter, but I also trade the ES.

For anyone following along, Whisky is asking a legitimate question. Go read page 10. It's all there. Whisky, Thanks for your work on the NinjaTrader code. NT is one of the finest pieces of trading software I've come across. So fine that I bought a lifetime license a couple of days...

ProfLogic, Have you posted how to determine the best volume bar for any given market? I know you mentioned you use 16807 volume bars on the ES, and out of curiosity, I put 16807 volume bars up for the ZN and found that it worked fairly well. I didn't want to mess to much with it until I...

The one I hate the most is "prolly". Like I'll prolly have to put you on ignore if you write "prolly" one more time.

Don't make this so complicated. You have 2 choices, buy Vmware workstation or use the free Vmware server. Either way you now have a virtual machine (VM) that you can install XP or Vista to, and then install TC2000. Piece of cake on ubuntu. I have an XP VM that I run TC2000 on as well as...

While most are dismissing the above, it really should be cause for concern for everyone, even those who think it won't apply to them.

$CostAverageMAN, I've not paid much attention to the bond ETF's as I focus on bond futures. Your post gave me the kick I needed to look a little closer at them and I put a portion of my 401K in TBT as well. The bulk of my 401K is in POT and it has done phenomenally well for me, both all of...

The thread's premise is a silly question to even address, but here is food for thought. Let's say your average income is 100,000 USD a year (I know it isn't but let's pretend). Let's also say you get the full 10,000,000 (still pretending). Let's say you decided to space it out over 20...

Just an FYI for $CostAverageMAN as well as anyone else following along, Gary Dorsch, who publishes the Global Money Trends newsletter, apparently agrees. I just received his latest free newsletter teaser for the paid one, and the following line caught my eye: "GMT expects traders to dump...

Congratulations and Great Trading! What are your thoughts on POT regarding targets for the year? John

ProfLogic, Have you really written a book? I assume you have. How might one go about finding the book? If you or another person would PM me with the details I would greatly appreciate it. Regards, John

Brandon, This is easily one of the best posts ever made on ET. Thanks from a fellow Iowan. Data mining one's own trading is the smartest move a trader can make. Regards, John

Brad, Just curious. Matlab is something I've never gotten into but have always had an interest in. My day job has me performing data mining on very large data sets. I assume that your education in Matlab was actually non-trading related correct? If so, how did you get your start in...

ProfLogic, Here are two trades I made today using your method (or variation thereof). Comments? It doesn't show on chart, but the start is 2 buys, close trades, 2 sells, close trades. I had to go to bed, but obviously now as I look at the chart, the second trade, when I closed the...

Spectre2007, Excellent call. I continue to trade the ZB and ZN intra-day with the occasional multi-day hold. I always enjoy reading about long-term outlooks in the markets I love. Keep us posted! Regards, John

This is great news. I have access to Korean cable. Just imagine, ordinary Korean cable carries not one, but two channels devoted to intense, in-depth technical analysis of the financial markets. This will be very interesting. I wonder if this will be a case similar to all the hot-shot...
